This is correct. The knob on the right (when sitting in the car looking out
the windshield) diverts the air to the screen or interior. It has stops for
each position plus the off position. The temperature control is on the
left; it has a longer cable that operates the valve on the engine block.
At least that is the configuration for the early 70's B and BGT, such as mine.
